A Marshall teenager found herself locked up in the Parke County Jail and facing a felony charge after a Department of Child Services investigation revealed she bit a toddler.
According to Parke County Sheriff Jason Frazier, deputies were contacted Monday evening to assist with a DCS investigation in Marshall. During the investigation, it was discovered that 19-year-old Madalynn Ryan, of Marshall, bit a 3-year-old on the arm.
While the details of what led up to the bite were not released, Ryan was arrested and charged with a Level 6 felony count of domestic battery on a victim under 16. She was transported to the Parke County Jail, where she was initially held with no bond prior to an initial hearing Tuesday afternoon.
